CORSAIR AIR 5400: Everything You Need to Know

Last updated:

The CORSAIR AIR 5400 is our first triple-chamber case. It features a dedicated CPU cooling area, a central chamber with an air duct to focus air flow for the GPU and motherboard, and a third chamber to keep your mass storage and power supply isolated and cooled away from the other areas.

With curved glass hinged panels, reverse blade fans housed within the lower ducting to create amazing lighting effects, and the new Rapid Route 2.0 cable management system to simplify cable management, this is a PC case unlike any other.

Dedicated Radiator Cooling Chamber

The AIR 5400 has an isolated chamber for a radiator of up to 360mm. What makes this unique is that the heat from the CPU is exhausted directly out of the case, so no other components are affected by the heat produced, and your CPU always gets the coolest air possible.

The intake for this has a dust filter with the rear air flow guide with strakes to help direct the airflow away from the back panel of the case so as not to interfere with the PSU intake

Ducted Central Chamber

The central chamber within the case uses air ducts at the bottom and top of the case, which focus the air from the LX-R or RS-R fans and direct it into the GPU, helping to improve your cooling performance. This air is then exhausted out of the top and rear of the case and does not touch either of the other two cooling zones, while having enough space to take the largest GPUs.

For ease of access when working in the case, both the top and bottom ducts are removable, making it easy to install your motherboard and fans.

PSU and Storage

The AIR 5400 supports ATX PSUs and with the included drive trays 2 X 3.5” Hard drives and 2 X 2.5” SSDs.

These also have their own dedicated passive intake and exhaust channels to keep them running smoothly.

Clear Visuals From Any Angle

The AIR 5400 combines stunning visuals from any angle with a clean build process, thanks to the two-piece wraparound curved glass and the included reverse RGB fans for unobstructed lighting.

Rapid Route 2.0 allows for flexible cable management, allowing you to place the cable mounts where you need them.

Ease of Access

The AIR 5400 makes building a PC a breeze. It supports reverse connections for ASUS BTF, MSI Project Zero, and Gigabyte Project Stealth, and the removable FRAME motherboard tray has plenty of cable cutouts and tie-down locations.

The two curved glass panels open outward on hidden hinges to allow easy access to all the components, making building and upgrading the PC a far smoother process.

A vertical polymer brush between the chambers helps makes cable management easier, allowing cables to be ran where is best and not restricted by a grommets while also removing the holes for them which can affect the finished look.

The included accessories include our QuikTurn Screws for fast easy installation of case fans and a microfiber cloth to keep to keep the case looking as good as it performs.
